I try to avoid these things as well, but there are two things that bring me back. First, the people making these arguments are often also saying that if you don't agree with them, you are a bad person. Usually in a vague general way that avoids insulting you specifically and attracting moderator...

In terms of breaking down caster into artillery and healing, I think it's system dependent. How important is healing to the system, and how does the system provide healing? For 5E, I'd say you want a healer. Other systems? I don't know. Talker depends on the dungeon. Is it just a kill fest, or...

But the Atari was awesome. I remember the neighborhood bully coming over and wanting to play Atari with me. I got to say, "No." Good times.

Nah, this would have been 1981, well before Dark Sun. This was the psionics from the AD&D 1E PHB:

My first D&D memory was making up an AD&D character in middle school (after school club in either the French or Spanish room). Another kid was helping me, and showed me how to roll for psionics. I actually rolled up psionics. The other kid excitedly told the DM (Charles, IIRC). He said "there's...

I wasn't really limiting the range. Except for a couple hand axe tosses is was all within short range anyway. But I was applying disadvantage to the attacks, at least for creatures without swimming speeds. One guy cast alter self to get a swimming speed, which I thought was a nice tactic.

There is only a teeny little bit about underwater combat in the PHB. This leaves one point of vagueness: What exactly is underwater combat? If both the attacker and the target are underwater, it is obviously underwater combat. But what if only the target is underwater? And what if only the...

The initial word of a sentence should be capitalized, and the parenthetical statement should come before the question mark. ;)

I put "a mix" but it's more like conflicted desires. I prefer digital media for several reasons (environmental, space, ease of use, ...). But I consistently find that digital media providers are total sleezoids, so I go back to physical media because I don't want to deal with them.

Brutal underwater combat against psycrachean.

I read that in Topher Grace's voice from Ocean's 11.

Love this one. This makes me think of an all semi-rogue party. They all have to be at least a rogue multi-class. Each on is secretly working for a different organization as a spy, even though they are ostensibly part of the same thieves' guild/gang. All of the players think they are playing the...

You know those videos on youtube that are like, "Black Widow's Best Fight Scenes," and it's all of Black Widow's fight scenes? Yeah, I hate those videos.

I can only think of three I would truly call great: Fafhrd (Fritz Leiber), Conan (Robert E. Howard), and Thomas Boniface (Martha Wells).

I would say that RAW it is not legal. But like the others, I don't think doing it is a real problem. If I was a player at your table and you did this, I would not have a problem with it. I think there are players out there who would have a problem with it, but I wouldn't be too worried about...

I prefer four hours. I am certainly willing to drop to three hours to accommodate people who still have jobs. Two hours just doesn't seem worth it, but maybe with players who are really focused on the game. I just haven't had players like that in a long time.

365.2422 hours. This information brought to you by a childhood obsession with the Mayan calendar.

What else would we need? Magic boxes, pushing a statue off a mesa, a door you open and then realize you don't want to go through it...
